03 May 2007 Hedging Disaster by Robert Kuttner, 28 April 2007. “The burgeoning hedge fund and private equity industries are both a cause and a symptom of a dangerously lopsided America. Because they are private (not listed on stock exchanges or offering shares to the public), these funds do not have to disclose their inner workings to regulators or to the public. Yet these unregulated funds are increasingly buying and selling some of our largest corporations, stripping assets, piling on debt, leaving employees and subsequent buyers to dig out of a deep hole.”

28 April 2007 * Apartheid - Ancient, Past, and Present: Systematic and Gross Human Rights Violations in Graeco-Roman Egypt, South Africa, and Israel/Palestine by Anthony Löwstedt, 06 April 2007. “Moreover, the Palestinians in Palestine and Israel, just like the South African Blacks in South Africa, including the Homelands, were both disarmed and surrounded, during most of these wars of the apartheid states against their neighbors. Lacking states as well as military hardware, it was thus next to impossible for the main victims of apartheid to wage war anyway. In Chapter III.4, I will argue that less than 2.2 per cent of all gross human rights violations in the Palestinian-Israeli conflict have been perpetrated by Palestinians and their allies and supporters, and more than 97.8 per cent by Israeli Jews and their supporters and allies.” [Topic: The 'democratic' state of Israel]

23 February 2007 The Future Vision of the Palestinian Arabs in Israel by The National Committee for the Heads of the Arab Local Authorities in Israel, 2006. “We are the Palestinian Arabs in Israel, the indigenous peoples, the residents of the States of Israel, and an integral part of the Palestinian People and the Arab and Muslim and human Nation.
The war of 1948 resulted in the establishment of the Israeli state on a 78% of historical Palestine.
We found ourselves, those who have remained in their homeland (approximately 160,000) within the borders of the Jewish state. Such reality has isolated us from the rest of the Palestinian People and the Arab world and we were forced to become citizens of Israel. This has transformed us into a minority living in our historic homeland.”
